You guys just make comments without even analyzing the results. The best game to come out this past months is last of us remastered and considering that many PS4 owners are convert from Wii and Xbox 360 this is a new game to them.

September will no be any better for Xbox one, destiny PS4 bundle will dominate all of September.

I'm very surprise with the ps4 numbers in Japan no spike regardless of last of us release.

PS4 is so popular world wide why isn't it picking up in Japan not even outselling WiiU??


Imagine if the PS4 had no COD, no Infamous, no TLOUR, no Watch Dogs, no Ass Creed. Instead it had One Piece, Dynasty Warrior, Dragon Quest, Tales of, and a PS3/PS4 Killzone Shadow Fall. How well do you think it would do in the west?

 

That's the situation it is currently facing in Japan. No games that cater to their audience. Yoshi says they are aware of it, but I doubt it they'll do much to remedy the situation.

At least Dragonball and soon also One Piece will be on PS4. And some weird game with nude chicks covered by fruit acting as action heroes will probably do great. And there is also a new Yakuza game and a lot of announcements will happen next week. So also Japan will be covered starting this holiday season and continuing in 2015. 

No exclusives though, that's the main problem.

So you don't expect them to release any titles of interest to Japanese gamers?

I do, but they need the huge franchises, i.e. MH and DQ on it. MH is a million seller on cosoles. MH5 there would serve the PS4 well. DQ is a monster regardless of platform. DQX port and DQVII HD to PS3/4/V, DQVIII Remake and DQXI to PS4. Sony could and should try to get those on their systems now. Capcom and SE are dying to get those franchises to become big in the west. Offer to publish those games in the west and make it front and center on the hot selling PS4. If there's a time to get those franchises back on Playstation, the time is now. Also need KHIII and FFXV to release there pronto.

I do not expect any of that though. GT6XL, Bloodborne, FFType0HD. Playable demo of RE:Remake and maybe a new trailer for FFXV and KHIII is what I expect.  Not a whole lot more than that. Also seems like Yoshida was putting some hope on VR, so maybe HSG7 and some weird VR games for their tastes.

 

What are you expecting?
